Force, energy and surface integrity in micro-fine finishing of a feldspar porcelain versus operational parameters were investigated using a 2-DOF (two-degrees-of-freedom) high-speed dental handpiece and a fine diamond bur of 20–30 ␮m grits. The tangential and normal forces were measured as being significantly small in the ranges 0.18–0.35 N and 0.22–0.59 N, respectively. High specific finishing energy of 110–2523 J/mm3 was observed in material removal, particularly when decreasing either the depth of cut or the feed rate. Scanning electron microscopy observations indicated that the surfaces generated were mainly due to ductile flow; however, microfractures also occurred in porcelain. Surface roughness was measured as 0.43–0.74 ␮min terms of arithmetic mean value (Ra), decreasing with the depth of cut, but insignificantly changing with the feed rate (ANOVA, P > 0.05). Recommendations for clinical practice are made on the basis of our testing results. © 2007 IPEM. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Recent studies on in vitro dental finishing using coarse burs have found that the forces and handpiece speeds depended on the operational parameters [17,26]. However, the influence of operational parameters on micro-fine finish- ing process and quality using fine burs remains unknown, even though it is critical to dental restorations. In this paper we describe the in vitro micro-fine finish- ing of a feldspar porcelain using a 2-DOF high-speed dental handpiece and fine diamond grits under a wide range of con- ditions.

  • Design and Fabrication of Nonconventional Optical Components by Precision Glass Molding
    Design and Fabrication of Nonconventional Optical Components by Precision Glass Molding DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Peng He Graduate Program in Industrial and Systems Engineering The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Allen Y. Yi, Advisor Dr. Jose M. Castro Dr. L. James Lee Copyright by Peng He 2014 Abstract Precision glass molding is a net-shaping process to fabricate glass optics by replicating optical features from precision molds to glass at elevated temperature. The advantages of precision glass molding over traditional glass lens fabrication methods make it especially suitable for the production of optical components with complicated geometries, such as aspherical lenses, diffractive hybrid lenses, microlens arrays, etc. Despite of these advantages, a number of problems must be solved before this process can be used in industrial applications. The primary goal of this research is to determine the feasibility and performance of nonconventional optical components formed by precision glass molding. This research aimed to investigate glass molding by combing experiments and finite element method (FEM) based numerical simulations. The first step was to develop an integrated compensation solution for both surface deviation and refractive index drop of glass optics. An FEM simulation based on Tool-Narayanaswamy-Moynihan (TNM) model was applied to predict index drop of the molded optical glass. The predicted index value was then used to compensate for the optical design of the lens. Using commercially available general purpose software, ABAQUS, the entire process of glass molding was simulated to calculate the surface deviation from the adjusted lens geometry, which was applied to final mold shape modification.

  • Three Meter Capacity Diamond Turning Machine for X-Ray Telescope Components
    Dallas Optical Systems, Inc. NASA RFI Solicitation: NNH11ZDA018L Three Meter Capacity Diamond Turning Machine For X-Ray Telescope Components Enabling Technology: A 3 meter capacity diamond turning machine will be enabling technology for low cost fabrication of x-ray telescope optical components. Three Meter Capacity Diamond Turning Machine For X-Ray Telescope Components Submitted by: John M. Casstevens, President email: [email protected] Dallas Optical Systems, Inc. 1790 Connie Lane Rockwall, Texas 75032-6708 The technology readiness level (TRL) for this technology is 5 to 6. Based on previous experience of building a similar machine and facility the rough order of magnitude cost to establish the proposed capability to manufacture and certify x-ray mirror glass slumping mandrels meeting IXO specifications will not exceed $300M. Identification and Significance of the Enabling Technical Innovation The ranking of IXO as the fourth-priority large space mission in the National Academy Astro2010 Decadal Report reflects the technical, cost, and programmatic uncertainties associated with the project at the current time. A major emphasis in achieving a successful IXO is reducing the cost of the grazing incidence mirrors. Diamond turning has been proven to be able to produce highly aspheric optical contours to visible wavelength tolerances with extremely smooth surfaces. Diamond turning has the additional enabling capability to not only produce extremely smooth and accurate optical surfaces but also mechanical attachment surfaces and datums which allow extremely fast and complex optical components to be quickly and easily aligned. The productivity of diamond turning allows the production of quantities of optical components with exacting duplication of optical surfaces and metrology datums.

  • Enabling the Production of Aspheric Glass Lenses with Diffractive Structures K
    Proceedings of the 11th euspen International Conference – Como – May 2011 Enabling the Production of Aspheric Glass Lenses with Diffractive Structures K. Georgiadis1,2, B. Bulla1, D. Hollstegge1, O. Dambon1, F. Klocke1,2 1Fraunhofer Institute for Production Technology, Germany 2Fraunhofer Project Center for Coatings in Manufacturing, Germany [email protected] Abstract The demand for complex-shaped optical components is rising rapidly, driven by their significant advantages over traditional optics. A great example are lenses that combine aspherical surfaces and diffraction gratings. These can eliminate spherical as well as chromatic aberrations in imaging optics and can therefore replace multi-lens optical systems. Although glass aspheric lenses or lenses with diffraction gratings can be manufactured by various production technologies, the production of glass lenses that combine both was not possible until now. In this paper, the development of a production method of such lenses using precision glass moulding is presented. 1 Introduction Precision glass moulding is a replicative technology, where a glass blank is heated and isothermally pressed to the desired shape between ultra-precision moulds. After the moulding process, no further processing is necessary [1]. Usually, binderless cemented tungsten carbide is precision ground to form the moulding tools, which are then coated with noble metal coatings in order to reduce the chemical interactions with the glass and increase their lifetime [2-3]. In order to manufacture diffractive structures on an aspheric surface, diamond turning must be used, since only this technology enables the production of the very fine and sharp structures required. The problem is that not all materials can be diamond turned.

  • PRECISION DIAMOND TURNING of AEROSPACE OPTICAL SYSTEMS the Environment Housing the Diamond Turning Lathe Should Be Maintained to ± 0.01°F
    PRACTICE NO. PD-ED-1265 PAGE 1 OF 4 PREFERRED PRECISION DIAMOND TURNING OF RELIABILITY PRACTICES AEROSPACE OPTICAL SYSTEMS Guideline: Meticulous control of vibration, environmental factors, and machining parameters are required to produce precision diffractive, refractive, reflective and hybrid optical components for aerospace applications. Benefits: Highly reliable diffractive, refractive, reflective, and hybrid aerospace optical systems can be produced by a meticulously controlled and protected diamond turning process. The result can be rugged, temperature-compensating achromatic precision optical elements suitable for a wide variety of applications. Center to Contact for More Information: Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) Implementation: Diamond turning is a well-established fabrication process for shaping high quality optical surfaces on metals, polymers, and crystals. Diamond turning has the capability of precision machining with a single point cutting tool to an accuracy of a fraction of a wavelength of light which makes it suitable for fabricating lenses. The surface finish quality of diamond turning is satisfactory for optical components in the mid to long wavelength regions of the infrared spectrum. Diamond machining can be beneficial for metal mirrors because of the ability to machine a reflective surface directly onto a structural substrate which may contain mounting bosses, alignment flanges, and rib reinforcements. The precision to which components can be machined is partially dependant upon the extent to which the dynamic motion of the machine tool can be controlled with the work piece. The detrimental dynamics of the diamond turning machine can be minimized by stiffening the machine, or mounting it on a vibration isolating mount. Vibration can be reduced by mounting the machine on a block of granite, or in-ground concrete blocks surrounded with vibration isolation material.

Then, tungsten carbide was precisely machined with a polycrystalline diamond (PCD) tool assisted by the self-developed high frequency ultrasonic vibration cutting system. Tool wear mechanism was investigated in ductile regime machining of tungsten carbide. The cutter back-off phenomenon in the process was analyzed. The subsequent experimental results of ultra-precision machining with a single crystal diamond tool showed that: under the condition of high frequency ultrasonic vibration cutting, nano-scale surface roughness can be obtained by the diamond tool with smaller tip radius and no defects like those of ground surface were found on the machined surface. Tool wear mechanisms of the single crystal diamond tool are mainly abrasive wear and micro-chipping. To solve the problem, a method of inclined ultrasonic vibration cutting with negative rake angle was put forward according to force analysis, which can further reduce tool wear and roughness of the machined surface.
